Introduction

[MBKSteve]

I am a tool & die maker in the Chatsworth, CA area ( North Los Angeles County)

My company name is MBK Industries and I specialize in the design and manufacture of consumer market based plastic injection molds. I also assist manufacturing companies with prototype design and manufacture to prove out their product and machine design.

The reason I would like access to you website is twofold. First, having been involved in the metal working community for over 50 years I'm naturally interested in all the methods by which metal can be cut, shaped, formed, welded etc.. Second, I've been tasked by a customer to create some tooling for a Nibbler specifically some shrinking dies and have now become even more interested with the field of sheet metal fabrication.

If accepted into this forum, would someone please be so kind and instruct me as to what a "Tag" is and what it does. Thank you.
